Awesome! How about patching the port for 5.2 to use 4.8.0 and pthreads? ;-)

It also has libpthread, libc (okay) libffi, and libm if I am reading things
right. Those are the ones I was more worried about. gcc doesn't change much,
as you know. But there are about two dozen autoconfs and gmakes.

My modified port did build and install in /usr/local. But after the port
builds I don't know if the normal chicken build tree exists. That's why I
didn't know if I could run the normal tests after that. Can you think of an
easy way, given chicken is already installed in /usr/local? Or should I just
bag it and go on?

Are you saying this about the 4.8 build? I'm not worried about that since I
build everything from source on Linux without a package manager or ports
system (Slackware). On OpenBSD I try to play by the rules because I know
I'll get no help if I deviate ;-)
